Fellow photographer Johan Lolos spent most of 2015 in New Zealand. What he discovered and captured is nothing short of amazing!
New Zealand changed me forever. It is there that I started my career as a full-time photographer, it is there that I discovered my passion for the outdoors and mountains, and it is there that I lived for 7 months in the most relaxing place on Earth: Wanaka. Now I have some new plans for 2016 but I know that I’ll be back in New Zealand one day, probably sooner than expected. In the meantime, I’d like to share with you this series of pictures I took during my time there. There are 40 pictures that all represent a unique moment to me, and I hope you’ll find some inspiration in them.
